Here we go. The actual character sheet if this is good, will probably take the form of a police file. Presuming there's more than a few space governments after them. No picture since I don't see myself finding a real world person who would match, also can't use the ref sheet that this character takes soft inspiration from. Struggled on personality traits since I'm used to writing thos out. Hope this "rough" version is good for at least initial okay. If not, I can make changes as needed.

@Double Noir reminds me of the last Crimson Avenger to appear in DC Comics before the New52 relaunch.

@Kazemitsu I enjoyed this character quite a bit before, can't wait to see if he's any different....

@DocRockAccepted also!

@role model Sounds good to me!

@Omega Man So... is that an "accepted" then?

Also, I don't think I'd ever heard of Crimson Avenger until you mentioned them. Huh, there are similarities. Purely coincidental though as, like I said, I had never heard of Crimoson Avenger before now. My main inspirations were Batman Beyond (the Terry/Bruce dynamic specifically) and Philip Marlowe (a series of pulp detective novels) with a tiny bit of Constantine to give it that mystical/paranormal flair.

Thanks for the okay, looking forward to when the OOC goes up.

Not sure how I'll figure out how to make a good "police file" type character sheet, but I'll figure it out somehow.

The OG Crimson Avenger was more like the Green Hornet, and was one of the original stars of Detective Comics before Batman came around.

EDIT: And yeah, everybody in that post of mine was accepted. I just haven't had much sleep the last few nights trying to get some things done in time for tax season.

@Omega Man I just discovered this thread mere moments before. I like the premise and I am interested in joining. It looks though that you are about to begin the game and have assembled all the players. Is it too late for me to join? I have a villian concept in mind, but if you already content with the cast you have accrued, I will leave you be.

Sometime in the next couple of days. I'll get an OOC finished up soon, and we'll shoot for a Friday start for the IC. I'm off Sat-Mon but I work long hours Tues-Fri.

@Omega Man Cool! Thanks! :) I'm not quite sure what archetype to categorize him, but I know what powers to give him. Should I post his sheet here or wait to post him in the new forum?

Name: Leon Leopold Rosenveldt

Alias: The Crimson Shade, The Rose Killer

Age: 24

Powers: The Crimson Shade has phenomenal reflexes and super agility, capable of dodging bullets with ease. He has a perfect sense of balance, able to dance with ease even on the thinnest of tightropes, run up walls, and jump and land with catlike grace. He has slightly enhanced regeneration and immune system on account of his inhuman metabolism, and can move without making a single sound and without disturbing the space around him, like a ninja. As well as being a master acrobat, he is super flexible, able to twist and contort his body beyond what most can normally achieve, allowing him to hide and fit into otherwise inaccessible crooks and crevices. He can also run faster than normal humans, capable of sprinting as fast as a cheetah.

Weaknesses: Aside from his slightly enhanced regeneration, it isn’t miraculous, rendering him a fragile speedster. Like a cheetah, he may take off with amazing speed, but he does not have the endurance to keep it up for long, and his heights of speed can drain his stamina quickly, making him ineffectual in a prolonged engagement. Crimson Shade may dance around bullets, but even he has a hard time dodging attacks he can’t see.

Equipment: Crimson Shade spares no expense when it comes to his armaments, arming himself with the best weapons that money could buy. Knives and daggers are Crimson Shade's preferred method of death dealing, as it allows him to savor the emotions and pains of his victims. He carries wrist-mounted switchblades (think Assassin's Creed), hollow compartments in his boots for storing more knives, and several other daggers sheathed and hidden under his sleeves, strapped to his chest, around his waist, and attached to his legs, so that he never lacks an instrument of murder. He carrys three swords on his back, two for dual wielding and precision, and a larger lazer sharpened sword named Charlotte for more armor penetration and heavier blows. He also has a skull-painted gas mask, two hand crossbows, a bow and arrow quiver, and a ballistic knife with a blade that can be shot from the hilt. He wears a bullet vest for small arms fire. Finally he has a small wooden case in his coat for carrying his signature roses.

Alignment: Villain

Personality: Narcissistic, Hedonistic, Sadistic, Bloodthirsty, Flamboyant

Appearance:
Civilian: Leon is on the shorter side, standing at 5’4, with bright green eyes, fair blonde hair neatly trimmed into a bob cut, and a smooth handsome face. His build is very slender, curvy and feminine, many of his mannerisms also reflecting his femininity. He wears black lipstick and often wears a form-fitting leotard, sometimes under other layers of fashionable and ostentatious clothing. Leon wears powerful perfumes, lotions, and scented oils.

Costume:


Short Bio: Leon Leopold Rosenveldt was inexplicably born with his powers. Rather than use his powers for heroism, he used them to become a star. He took up the acrobatic and performing arts, performing death defying stunts and wowing the crowd with his dexterity and charisma. Leon loved being placed center stage, soaking in the limelight and showering in the praise of his adoring audience. He seemed to have it all, looks, style, wealth, and fame. For somebody else, they might have found contentment with such an abundance of blessings, but not Leon. Though he was thrilled with all the attention and adrenaline that came with being an athletic showman, he felt in his heart a yearning for passions and excitements beyond even what the stage could offer, an inner pride for which even the roaring cheers could not satiate.

Everything had to be more, more extreme, more audacious, more dangerous. One night, after indulging in a night of heavy drinking, Leon started stumbling back towards his trailer, but in his stupor he didn’t realize he stumbled into a dark alley. It was there where a mugger threatened him with a knife, and though Leon even in his drunken state could have dispatched the assailant with ease, he was so enraged that such a filthy degenerate man would dare challenge HIM that he took the thief’s knife and stabbed him over and over again until he drowned in a pool of his own blood. It was in that moment, when Leon saw what he did to him that he realized….. it felt good… REALLY good! It was an ecstasy and exhilaration he never felt before in his life, and he reveled in the slaughter that he committed. A darkness sprouted forth from his soul, like a flower blooming from the depths of hell.

From then on there Leon embraced the life of a cold-blooded killer, becoming an Assassin for hire under the alias of the Crimson Shade. He is also infamously known as the Rose Killer, after his habit of leaving his calling card, a red rose, on the bodies of his victims. While the Crimson Shade would accept payments, it was merely an excuse to indulge in his true passions of blood-lust and killing with a smile on his face.

Potential Storylines:

Kingslayer; Crimson Shade is hired by a criminal organization to assist in the assassination of a high ranking member of the Mountain city counsel.

Pleasure Seeker; Crimson Shade is always looking for his next high of experience, rather it be strong emotions, straddling the line between life and death, engaging in extreme acts of violence, or tearing apart a person mind body and soul. He is willing to team up with anyone who is willing to help him to obtain greater highs of sensations, rather it be through experimental superdrugs, mystical visions triggered by dark rituals, or nurturing his dreams of turning murder into a work of high art.

Worthy Opponent; Crimson Shade wants to fight an equal in glorious combat. He cares not even if he loses his life in the duel, so long as it goes down as a legendary battle for the ages.

Notes: The Crimson Shade may be a bloodthirsty psychopath, but even he has standards, such as refusing to kill children. He will never betray his employer, unless he suspects foul play.

The Rose Killer prefers using bows and arrows, swords, daggers, and other blades as opposed to guns, which he considers loud and inelegant.

Conflicts of Interests; The Crimson Shade is not too picky with whom he takes jobs from, be they heroes or villains. He doesn’t care who he fights along with, so long as he engages in the thrill of violence and bloodshed.

@Omega Man I wasn't sure what archetype to categorize him. His powers are mostly based on getting up close and getting out of dodge quickly, prioritizing speed and precision over strength.
